(((Verse 1)))
Walkin’ through the crowd, eyes on the exit sign,
Thoughts run wild like a marching band inside my mind.
But I queue up a filter, press mute on the tongue,
Public space is a stage, gotta keep it clean and sung.
(((Verse 2)))
Some stories burn holes, some truths minefields lie,
Better to smile and nod than spark a wildfire high.
Productive silence, that’s a power you can wield,(((whisper “fuck I’m saying it”)))
Turning mean into music, a vibe that’s safely sealed.
(((Verse 2.5))) // Added verse
When the impulse hits like a drum, your wanting to say Fuck , wanting to break the silence Just Fuckkkkkkkkkk
I breathe in deep and practice what I’d rather reveal.
Words stay on the page, or swing to a wiser cue,
Turning heat to harmony, proving I can choose.
(((Bridge)))
If you’re tempted to drop a truth that cuts like glass,Fuck !!!!Not Meeeeeeee
Trade it for a joke that lands with class.
The louder the room, the softer you can be,
Restraint is a rhythm, and it’s free.
(((Chorus)))
Keep it quiet, keep it kind, watch the words that you choose,FUCK I’ll be quiet Not!
Public air is priceless, don’t misuse the fuse.
Count to ten, take a breath, let the hotter takes subside,
Walk away, save the drama for the afterlife.
(((Verse 3)))
Question the motive, check the timing, read the room,FUCK here we go again .
Some battles aren’t worth fighting in a crowded public gloom.
If it isn’t kind or useful, let it float away,
Give respect to every ear that’s listening today.
(((Outro)))
So here’s to the silence that keeps us moving on,FUCK goes through my mind .
To mindful conversations and the kindness in our tone.
We may have thoughts that spark, but we choose what to say,
Public or private, let’s lead with grace
